No, inline elements don't trigger this. Only block elements, list-items, and table elements. The only way to trigger problems is to take a ton of block-level elements, make them display:inline, and nest them. That's an extremely minority position, to say the least. And if, for whatever reason, an author did need to do it, they can correct it themselves by also setting unicode-bidi. ~TJ
